A boat is a watercraft of modest size designed to float or plane, to provide passage across water. Usually this water will be inland (lakes) or in protected coastal areas. However, boats such as the whaleboat were designed to be operated from a ship in an offshore environment. In naval terms, a boat is something small enough to be carried aboard another vessel (a ship). Strictly speaking and uniquely a submarine is a boat as defined by the Royal Navy. Some boats too large for the naval definition include the Great Lakes freighter, riverboat, narrowboat and ferryboat. From Wikipedia under the

Noticed a circular devise installed in the windows of all the crab boats on Deadliest Catch. Wondering what is the purpose of the hardware? Asked by dfwmale_1962 - Sat Jul 17 18:26:28 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. I've seen them, too -- a white plastic-looking ring with a lead or wire leading down. They're usually seen in the wheelhouse windows very near the captain's chair. Seems like most of the boats have them. While I've never heard anyone say what they are, I've always assumed they are some kind of emitter or receiver. It looks to me like it could be a wire or metallic element on or embedded in a window cling (like a decal). If I had to make a guess, I'd say it's probably an antenna for one of the many communication devices they've got jammed into the wheelhouse.

Q. Boats and snowmobiles are just recreational toys owned mostly by the rich. They don't add any value to people, they just pollute. Do you agree that the environment is more important than a weekday fun time? And should boats and snowmobiles be baned in order to geduce ghg's? Asked by Dr Jello - AGW RIP 1980-2010 - Sat Jan 26 19:28:56 2008 - - 21 Answers - 1 Comments A. No. A lot of believers understand that we can't go banning things or else the media will turn on climate scientists and portray them as a bunch of quacks who have collectively overestimated the accuracy of their science and never get their predictions right. It's very important for the AGW movement that they claim there is a problem but don't advocate doing anything about it.
